Are you talking about LCP reads -> SPI reads translation?

If so I only need that for the initial boot.  After that I can issue SPI 
read commands directly to the device.

Is there some other limitation in the IT8716F you know of that won't let 
me read the full 24 bits of address?   The datasheet is sparse but seems 
pretty straight forward.  All the necessary registers and bits appear 
documented.
